All of us dream --dream fanciful dreams
of romance and phantasy or realistic
dreams of factuality and truth. However,
each of us here at Waynesboro High School
has one dream in common — that of our own
graduation.
We, the graduating class of 1957, rea¬
lize that we are only a short step away from
the fulfillment of that dream. The 1957
SKYLINE is our attempt at creating a mem¬
ory book of our high school hopes and
dreams, and we hope that as you follow our
theme, you, too, will realize that Waynes¬
boro High School is turly a "Doorway To
Our Dreams".

"It is necessary to try to surpass one's sell always; this occupation ought to last as long as life. --
Queen Christiana
The close of another school year is upon us— a time when we can reflect upon the things we have
accomplished and decide whether we have used the opportunities of the year to surpass ourselves.
I feel that many of you have. I know that many of our organizations and activities have surpas¬
sed their previous best efforts. I have seen many of you surpass yourself and acquire new skills, new
understandings, and new appreciations.
As your principal, I have experienced a feeling of sincere pride in your success. I encourage
you to continue your efforts to go beyond yourself. Some of you will be in high school again next
year; some of you will be in college and some will have entered the business world. Wherever
you are, try hard to do better than you have done; make this a habit which will last for all your
^ life.

A last we have reached our goal. We are
now Seniors. It seems as if it were just yes¬
terday that we entered Waynesboro High School
as "the greenest of green freshman." The silly
dreams of Sophomores and the jolly dreams
Juniors have come and gone.
We, the Senior Class of 1957, would like to
say "many thanks" to our principal, to the fac¬
ulty, and even to you underclassmen for making
these years truly the best years of our lives.
You have given us an education, a foUndati
on which to build our character, and friends
which we shall value forever^L#*^**^
Before us new dreams are beginning to un¬
fold— college, marriage, service to our country,
the business and industrial world.
Yet, our Senior memories will remain most
the vital and the most wonderful . . . the mad
cap laughter -lightened rehearsals for the
Senior Play ever ... die close companionsh
which made the Senior trip wonderful, ex¬
citing, but a little sad . . . Finals, Baccalaur
and the fulfillment of our dreams- graduation.
And so we bid farewell to Waynesboro H
School— the doorway to our dreams.

We, the Senior Class ot nineteen hundred fifty-eight, are about to see the realiza
tion of our dreams. It was a long, hard struggle, and many times when we just couldn't
see the difference between a relative pronoun and a personal pronoun or understand
what the GALLIC WARS were all about, we wondered if we’d ever make the grade.
But after much scrambling and even some cramming, here we are at the summit.
Three wonderful years lie behind us as; with great expectations, we face our last
year.
We finally realized that we were upperclassmen the day our rings arrived. Every¬
one rushed frantically to and fro exclaiming over his ring. We just couldn't wait to
jab our hands into every available face so everyone could admire our choice. At last,
we felt as if we were Juniors!
Money was the big question in our busy little brains as we mulled over ideas for
THE JUNIOR VARIETY SHOW. What would our theme be? Naturally, we knew that
our show would be bigger and better than ever. Money from the show went into the
Junior Class kitty for the big fling given annually for the Seniors--THE JUNIOR- -
SENIOR PROM. Our heads were filled with visions of decorations, bands, tuxes, and
dreamy, dreamy formals.
But soon all this will end, and nothing will remain of this year's dreams but happy
memories, as we, the class of nineteen hundred fifty-eight, turn to face our Senior
year with new dreams.

As the usual short summer came to a close we the new Sophomore Class, once again faced the open
doors of Waynesboro High, dreaming of another year of studies, sports, and spaghetti.
This year was a magic year for us because we had already mastered the art of opening lockers and
were veterans of one year of high school life.
As we familiarized ourselves with the faculty and new buildings of Waynesboro High, we also took
part in many activities of the school.
Many Sophomores saw their Freshman dreams come to life when they became potential stars in the
field of sports.
Football realized the dream of many enterprising young Sophomores, and the rugged practice and
tough schedule of the football teams did not dim their dreams.
Nor were the dreams of several Sophomore girls dimmed by time, for many of them took active
part in hockey. And for a few the fulfillment of a wish was recognized, for some of the sophomore girls
made the cheerleading and majorette squads.
As the year progressed we forgot the dragging weeks, and we began to take part in many organiza¬
tions of the school.
Once again sports reigned high in the dreams of the Sophomores. As basketball season rolled
around, many boys and girls visioned themselves on the Varsity and Junior Varsity squads. Mere hopes
were forgotten when Sophomore names appeared on the team rosters.
Beautiful harmony and lovely voices were the dreams of some of our energetic sophomores when
they joined the Waynesboro High School Band and the Choral Club.
As spring came to Waynesboro High, many Sophomores were dreaming of baseball and track, and by
hard work they made these dreams come true.
With the aid of Mr. Callison, our class sponsor, we saw the doors close on the school year of 56-57.
We, the Sophomores, finally became the upperclassmen of our dreams, and some of our number were
fortunate enought to be accepted by the Beta Club and the Science Club.

In September 1956 we had our first class as freshmen at Waynesboro High School. We knew now
that we belonged. We could enjoy the many privileges that were held in store for us.
Waynesboro High was becoming the doorway to our dreams. One of our dreams of becoming fresh¬
men had finally become reality. As the year progressed we learned more and more about school pro¬
cedure and how a member of the freshman class should act. Of course, we had expected the initiation
that we were to receive, and for the most part it was taken in good spirit.
No one was ever left idle. Officers of the class were chosen. There were clubs to join and activi¬
ties in which to take part. Just when things were beginning to look bad, the new events such as"Twirp
Week”, numerous dances, and other activities seemed to "pull us through."
Now most of us realize that in the next three years more of our dreams will come true. And we
shall remember how much "The Doorway to Our Dreams" has done for us.

Approximately two hundred fifty pupils entereu
the eighth grade at Waynesboro High School this
year. We had trouble getting lockers open, and the
changing of classes was new to us at the beginning of
the year. We have our own eighth grade clubs and
assemblies. This year we are very happy that we can
take three high school subjects --Latin, French, and
Algebra --so that we can earn extra credits. The pupils
entering the eighth grade this year need eighteen
credits in order to graduate. We are dreaming of
joining high school clubs next year and being able to
attend high school assemblies.
We want to thank our own eighth grade teachers for
making our dreams of eighth grade life come true. It
was everything we expected, and, as a result, our
dreams of high school have become bigger and just a
step nearer

Our dreams have come true; you are tasting their fulfillment -- "The 1957 Skyline".
Although its preparation was purely pleasure, we dreamed of the night when the bed springs would creak at 10:30
p.m. rather than at 2:30 a.m. Even though we’re sleeping again, we can’t help feeling that our peaceful nights
will once again be interrupted by those well -remembered nightmares— nightmares of . . . tired typists still typing
. . . playful people plaguing photographers . . . feature editor, fatigued and frienzied . . . complete crazed copy
editor correcting copy, late as usual ... sly students snooping into our jealously guarded dedication . . . blurred,
baggy, and bloodshot eyes . . . cuckoo circulation manager circulating in circles . . . and raving editors rambling
at random.
But even nightmares come to an end; and as our dreams become a reality, we realize that the many hours of
hard work that went into the creation of the SKYLINE were well spent and will be justly rewarded.

The Science Club of 1957 was one of the
largest in the history of Waynesboro High
School. The club sponsored the annual Thanks¬
giving Dance, which was a huge success.
During the Christmas season members erected
a Christmas tree in the main lobby of the
school and decorated it. Science Club mem¬
bers also e:cplored a mysterious cave in Mon¬
terey, Virginia.
The Science Club is an organization for the
benefit of students who wish to continue their
study of science outside of the classroom. Its
members are required to have passed two years
of Science in their high school program of
study.

The French Club was organized for
the first time in our high school in
1956. Its purpose is that of continuing
a study of the French language, people,
and customs in the extracurricular
activities of French students.
During the past two years, the
French club has had a French meal,
gone to a French movie, sold charm
bracelets and key chains, and given
two French assemblies. This year Les
Joyeux Confreres has started two new
French Clubs composed of French I
students. The school in constantly
reminded of the French Club by the
attractive bulletin boards in the halls

schools cf the United States and Territories. As an integral part of the program of home economics, it offers
opportunity for the further development of personal initiative in planning and carrying out activities related to
homemaking.
The Future Homemakers of America brings together local, county, and state groups interested in and working
toward better home and family living, provides opportunities to share in solving problems important to home life,
and sponsors group projects, local, state, and national in scope; it increased opportunities for the development of
leadership and intelligent participation so much needed in a democratic society.
The Waynesboro Chapter participates in many home, school, and community activities. Each year the girls
model the clothes they have made in a fashion show, presented during an assembly program at the school. En¬
tertaining their parents at an International Dinner is a school activity which the girls enjoy. They also serve
refreshments to the teachers at their taculty meeting each month. Many FHA girls volunteer their time and
service to the local hospital, working in the hospitality shop and as receptionists. The open house at Christmas
time is another occasion to be remembered by parents, teachers, and students.

Society
The Thespian Society of Waynesboro High School is a club for students who are in¬
terested in all the methods of play production. They participate in the direction, pro¬
duction, scenery, and acting capacities of dramatics.
The officers for the year were assisted by the Play Committee, which selected plays
for production, and the Program Committee, which planned programs for the meetings.
The student directors and Set Committee worked on the production of a play "The
McIntosh Sisters." This play was presented to the student body in an assembly.

The Waynesboro High School Chorus started the year off in a fine
fashion.
Practice, the most essential part of a chorus, was begun imme¬
diately. Officers were elected to meet with Mrs. R.A. Griffith, the
instructor, to direct the business which inevitably would come up.
The first real program in which the chorus participated was at a
PTA meeting in October. Soon afterwards practice was begun on the
Christmas pageant music. The chorus played a very vital part in this
pageant, presenting music to suit everyone’s taste.
The outstanding performance given by the chorus was the winter
concert given with the band. The 50 member chorus did a splendid
job in singing religious songs as well as fast -moving ones which made
you want to tap your foot.
All -State Chorus was held in February in Staunton with Warren
Coleman, Charles Reid, Phyllis Palmer, Sylvia Henkel, Carol Olsen,
and Susan Shackelford being selected to attend.
With the year being wrapped up by the chorus’s singing for the
Graduation, it can well be said that this past year has been one of
the most successful in the chorus’s history.

The sole purpose of the Pep Club is to arouse school spirit and to
support the team by forming a cheering section at the games during
football season. The Pep Club members sit in a bleacher section re¬
served for them and other students. They join the others to cheer the
team.
Several times the members came on the Thursday night before a
home game to practice some of the more unfamiliar cheers with the
cheerleaders. Other activities included making shakers and selling
them at the games, and decorating the goal posts on the afternoon
before each home game. The Homecoming Dance, sponsored by the
club, was a big success. The Homecoming Queen and her court
were chosen from the student body and reigned for the evening. The
club completed its activities with the end of football season, but its
members lost none of their distinctive "pep". Athletics at Waynes¬
boro High School have ever -staunch supporters in its members.

The Cam and Wheel Club affords boys who are interested in automotive design,
performance, and mechanics, an opportunity to discuss together topics of interest which
may be as modern as a jet-powered hot rod or as obsolete as one of the horseless car¬
riages of the late nineteenth century. Its members endeavor to promote a greater re¬
spect toward automobiles and to encourage safer driving.
The programs for 1957 have consisted of talks by authorities on the automobile and
slides and movies pertaining to the automotive field. There have also been some out¬
door meetings for the purpose of gaining some practical automotive experience.

The Safety Club endeavors to improve all safety practices and safety conditions

Our school band is truly an organization of which Waynesboro High School can justly be proud. These talented
students have brought many hard-won laurels to our school. For three consecutive years, our band has won first
place in the Armed Force’s Day parade which is held in Harrisonburg. They have gotten the highest rating many,
many times at music festivals. At the last festival, they were the only band to receive three "one's" for their
performance.
These versatile musicians have shown their talent on the football field as well as on the concert stage. At all
the home games, weather permitting, the band puts on an extravagant half-time performance. Not only do they
remember the wonderful games, but many fans recall the half-time shows with equal enthusiasm. There were
shows featuring Paris, droodles, Waynesboro's industries, and the cheerleaders. Each show was a separate spec¬
tacle in itself.
However, none of these honors would have been possible but for the expert guidance of Mr. James G. Luns¬
ford, Mr. Lunsford, more affectionately known to his band members as "Gooch", is the behind-the-scenes power
of the W.H.S. band. Without his ability and ingenuity, the high school band would not be the fine organization
which it is.
Mr. Lunsford and the band can always be found either playing or "goofing off", as they describe it. But as
long as the band continues to play as it has, W.H.S. can be assured of a fine band.

As you can see from the box score, the "Stanleymen" produced
one of their most outstanding seasons. A lot of effort was put forth
by the girls and congratulations are in order for each individual par¬
ticipating in this year's hockey games. Without the constant coach¬
ing and assistance of Mrs. Avis Stanley, it is doubtful that the Little
Amazons would have pulled through as well. Frances Moyer, a Senior,
was selected as captain for the year.

first-string or substitute varsity, the very best of luck in the year *57.
We are confident that they will maintain the high standard set by all
other varsity teams of W.H.S. They won all of their scheduled games,
and the experience they received will be quite helpful in the com¬

The Little Amazons, for the first time under the fine coaching of Miss
Lucy Coyner, played 12 scheduled games. The season did not turn out
too brightly for the W.H.S. girls, but the future holds indefinite possibili¬
ties. The players displayed fine sportsmanship and manners in each parti¬
cipating game.
First-string starting line-up —
Frances Moyer — Frannie's rebounding and shooting ability will be greatly
missed next year.
Gloria Muse— — Gloria's all-around playing has been quite an asset to
her teammates.
Joanna Wade - Jo has established herself as both as a playmaker and a
scorer.
Noble Goodloe— Noble's determination and hustle has produced a much
faster game.
Ann Gorden — ~ Ann's quickness and speed will do much for the Little
A's next year.
Virginia Whitesel-This is Ginny's first year on varsity, and her calmness
has helped the team considerably.

Waynesboro High School’s Baby Amazons began their
1956-1957 basketball season as basket bailers who
were a little green around the edges. As the season
progressed, however, they learned more about
basketball; and their won -lost record improved
steadily. With practice and continued work, the
Baby Amazons of 1956-1957 are expected to put out
a very successful varsity basketball team next year.

The Junior Varsity football team kept alive their victory
skein this year. They are now undefeated in 20 straight
games stretching over three years from 1954. This year's
Little Giant’s JV's didn’t encounter any difficulty in defeat¬
ing any of their opponents. In fact no opponent was able to
scoie on our Junior Varsity. Scores of 69 to 0 and 39 to 0
were typical of their play. Most of these boys should supply
the Varsity with much talent next year.

feated in nineteen straight games. These boys
worked hard all year and deserve more credit
than they received. They completely over¬
whelmed all their opponents and averaged over
twenty points more per game than all opposi¬

The 1956-1957 edition of the Little Giants was
possibly the greatest team ever assembled at Waynes¬
boro High School. They raced through 19 straight
games unscathed. This record was easily the tops in
District V. Billy Robertson, Bill Brooker, Neil Knice-
ly, Jimmy Alexion, and Flash Gordon composing the
starting five were outstanding throughout the season.
The Giants’ bench was also considered the strongest
in the District. Four regulars from this year's team
will not return, but next year’s team is expected to
hold its own in district play.
